The sudden shift is like the flicking on of a light, the perfect example of frontman-songwriter-mastermind James Murphy's effortless balance of restraint and release, organic rock and electro pop, and muted cool and vibrant emotion. This study in contrasts pervades LCD Soundsystem's third, and possibly final, release--an album where Murphy refracts images of heartbreak and longing through the scattered light of a disco ball.\u003cspan class=\"break\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cautious observations and honest reveals that follow are literally and figuratively quieter moments than that initial blare. On \"All I Want,\" against a wall of whirling guitar, Murphy recognizes a relationship that can't be saved, and instead asks for \"your pity\" and \"your bitter tears.\" \"Get Along\" shuffles over pulsing keys and bubbling percussion as Murphy tries to bridge physical and emotional distance, singing, \"You might forget, forget the sound of a voice \/ Still, you shouldn't forget the things we laughed about.\" Conversely, the sparsely decorated, sauntering \"Somebody's Calling Me\" is almost hopeful in comparison: \"Somebody's calling me\" Murphy half whispers, \"to be my girl.\"\u003cspan class=\"break\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are stretches of lyrical levity here, too. \"You Wanted a Hit,\" which sits atop shiny synths, a driving bass-line and layers of handclaps, laments record label demands on what turns out to be one of the album's hookiest tracks. \"Pow Pow\" veers toward past \"talkies\" like \"Losing My Edge,\" and features keyboardist Nancy Whang shouting in unison with Murphy.\u003cspan class=\"break\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith This Is Happening, Murphy has created a work of both nuanced introspection and distanced observation.
